Dark Theme Everywhere Extension
**New in Version 6**
Manually toggling a site's theme now adds or removes it from your exceptions list, so you don't need to re-click whenever you refresh!
**New in Version 5**
Subtly darkens photos and media embeds (you can turn this off from the Options page).
**New in Version 4**
Add a list of exceptions from the default theme (eg. \"facebook.com\").
I was tempted to call this \"Nicest Inverter\", but it doesn't actually invert anything. It gives you a dark page, no matter what!
Improvements from Nicer Inverter:
● Dark-ifies pages aggressively, so you're much less likely to come across pages with bright patches.
● Dark-ifies pages *by default*, so you don't need to click the extension's button on every page load.
● Allows you to toggle dark styles on and off without reloading the page.
● Optionally darkens photos and media embeds.
There are a lot of inverters out there, and many of them are great. I'm using Dark Reader[1] right now, and honestly, it's better than this for most use cases. BUT! Some pages on the internet are dark by default. When you invert a dark page, it becomes light. AGH MY EYES!
This extension will *always* give you a dark background.
You can change the default theme from \"Dark\" to \"Light\" by going to Tools -> Extensions and clicking the \"Options\" link under Dark Theme Everywhere. You can toggle the theme with a hotkey by going to Tools -> Extensions and clicking the \"Keyboard shortcuts\" link at the bottom.
Now that your browser is nice and dark-themed, you might notice an annoying white flash between pages. It's a known bug that's being tracked in Issue 1373[2] and Issue 126341[3]. I wrote another extension to reduce the flicker[4], but the problem will exist to some degree until it's fixed in Chromium.
Enjoy! Licensed under MIT.
